" Officially, professional divers 'at work' must use the new standard colouring, however the definition of 'at work' is not clear. The Health and Safety Executive have said that it is the prerogative of a dive shop or commercial air station to insist on the correct labelling of cylinders because the person filling the cylinder is 'at work'.

Like what Steve said.

For what its worth, last year Budgie at Portland was more than happy with my BSAC Nitrox stickers and unpainted cylinders.

I think he was only charging £2 for his large stickers as well.

Problem with the BSAC ones is the P&P charge bumps it up a bit if you only want 1 or 2. Better to get a few years worth in.

Dive Safe

<font color='#000080'>Steve,

The bit about it being the Cylinder filler being by a person who is themselves at work smacks of Jobs Worths to me, and any self (business) respecting LDS/filling station would ignore this as they'd be turning away business, Hopefully.

Paul O,

Your the DO of a BSAC club aren't you? just buy a small bundle of then and sell them on to the club members. This way the percentage of postage cost is reduced?

Dave

I do buy in bulk, and just stick them on any bottles that need them when we go away. Most never need them 'cos we use our own compresor and we know what goes in them.

O2 clean tank stickers

Does anyone know where these are being sold online? Are they needed to get nitrox fills. My new tanks are o2 clean, but no large nitrox sticker.

Cheers

Oxygen service stickers are available only to bona-fide dive shops with qualified personnel. The likes of us can't buy 'em I'm afraid.

Nitrox tank bands to comply with UK regs can be bought on BSAC web site for 25p each.

You will need both an O2 inspection and a Nitrox cylinder identification sticker to get a cylinder filled.

The Inspection stickers are already there on each tank, but they didn't bother adding the nx id labels. Bad considering the price I payed.

Cheers
